1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundTo investigate the thyroid function changes during controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) and ascertain its impact on reproductive outcomes.

methodsWe conducted meta-analysis in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. A comprehensive literature search was performed to identify studies reported changes in thyroid parameters during COH. We analyzed thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels, free thyroxin (fT4) levels, changes in estrogens (E2), thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG), relative risks (RRs) of clinical pregnancy rate (CPR), live birth rate (LBR), and mean difference (MD) of TSH increment between the miscarriage group and ongoing pregnancy group.

resultsThis meta-analysis included fifteen individual studies (n = 1665 subjects). At the end of COH, the mean TSH (2.53 mIU/L; 95% CI, 2.19 to 2.88; I

conclusionsThis meta-analysis shows that TSH increases and fT4 decreases during COH. COH-induced thyroid disorder impairs reproductive outcomes.
